  • The original Crash played fine, controls were very responsive, but the platforming was unforgiving. To give you an idea, the japanese version of Crash 1 is easier than the USA release, with some levels considerably shorter. Crash 2 and 3 are much easier compared to 1 (my personal favorite is 3, with all the powerups you get after beating bosses and the level variety)

    Rayman 1 was similarly hard as fuck, even more so to get a 100%. Absolutely gorgeous 2D graphics that hold up even today. Rayman 2 is worth checking out if you want 3D platforming, there's lots of that. Can't talk about Rayman 3 tho, but it does look fun.

  • "You can't just have Geralt for every single game" says his voice actor, and if you think The Witcher 4 making Ciri the protagonist is "woke," then "read the damn books"
  • Maybe not here in the fediverse, but there are dozens of youtube channels that are all about whining about "the woke" ruining the gaming industry, "explaining" how every spectacular failure we've seen in the last few years (Starfield, Concord) are because of DEI wokeness, etc.

  • What are some physical games or drawing exercises for teaching/training children?

    I've been thinking about some games that can be done in order to get people drawing, mostly as a means to give some variation to kids I've been teaching.

    So far, I've found/thought about the following:

    1. I go through body parts, one at a time, like "torso". Everyone draws it. Once done, they pass the paper to another person, then I state another body part, rinse and repeat until it's fully done
    2. One person has to describe a thing or creature without naming it, everyone else has to draw according to what's being described
    3. Give them 3 lists, one of "who", one of "where" and one of "doing", where they pick one option from each and have to draw it, so others have to figure what it is. For instance, "(Who) Medic / (Where) Space / (Doing) Playing games with friends"

    What else would you suggest?

    Only permanent success is allowed

    SOURCE - https://brightwanderer.tumblr.com/post/681806049845608448

    Alt-text: \ I think a lot about how we as a culture have turned “forever” into the only acceptable definition of success.

    Like... if you open a coffee shop and run it for a while and it makes you happy but then stuff gets too expensive and stressful and you want to do something else so you close it, it’s a “failed” business. If you write a book or two, then decide that you don’t actually want to keep doing that, you're a “failed” writer. If you marry someone, and that marriage is good for a while, and then stops working and you get divorced, it’s a “failed” marriage.

    The only acceptable “win condition” is “you keep doing that thing forever”. A friendship that lasts for a few years but then its time is done and you move on is considered less valuable or not a “real” friendship. A hobby that you do for a while and then are done with is a “phase” - or, alternatively, a “pity” that you don’t do that thing any more. A fandom is “dying” because people have had a lot of fun with it but are now moving on to other things.

    | just think that something can be good, and also end, and that thing was still good. And it’s okay to be sad that it ended, too. But the idea that anything that ends is automatically less than this hypothetical eternal state of success... I don’t think that’s doing us any good at all.

    Digimon World 2's Japan exclusive game mode, what was it?

    I once had the Japanese version of Digimon world 2 for the PS1 and I remember it having a separate game mode that, by default, would put you in an arena with Metal Greymon vs Were Garurumon. For whatever reason, the fight played fully automatically, no input needed, but if you messed around with buttons, you could sometimes change the attack of M.Greymon to the breast missile. After the fight was over, you'd be thrown back at the main menu.

    I've never seen anyone comment on it and even searching right now doesn't show any results. So, does anyone know what it was supposed to be and how to "properly play" it? Cutting room floor only mentions that western releases completely removed all compatibility with the Japanese gadgets and graphics related to that

    Making a press mold, need some input

    Pics https://ibb.co/album/sbjqwT (the weird triangle on the lower piece was fixed afterwards)

    I've been messing around with a press mold so I can make hex tiles using paper mache, or something else that is easily and cheaply available.

    The problem I've been having is with the sides, which rarely get properly pressed. What should I do to possibly fix this, regarding the model?

    Right now, I've only experimented with minced paper and water, which led to satisfying results. What other things could I add or try for this kind of press? What could I apply on the mold to make the paper less likely to stick? Vaseline doesn't make a difference.

    If I self host mastodon and matrix, and shutdown the device, when I turn it on again, will it receive all the activity that happened in the meantime?

    I've been thinking of self hosting a mastodon (gotosocial, more specifically) + a matrix server on an old computer I have, but sometimes I might need to turn it off for 2 days or more (not to mention some energy or internet outages that might happen here)

    I suppose with the mastodon part the server will properly sync and download whatever's been missing, but I'm not entirely sure that'll be the case with matrix. If anyone sent me a DM on there while my server was down, would it get through after it was back up?

    Com big techs, PL faz seminário sobre comunicação nas redes sociais

    PL continua com seu golpismo e sua defesa descarada de mentiras, falsidades e spam em conluio com as grandes empresas de informática pra garantir poder e dominação da população.

    Sempre usam essa ladainha de "liberdade de expressão" pra defenderem o uso de bots e outras táticas do gabinete do ódio, dizem ser a favor de "liberdade total de expressão", mas adoraria ver eles tentando defender isso com alguém perguntando "Então os senhores são a favor de postagens pró pedofilia? Pró aborto? São a favor de golpes cibernéticos?"
